+
+                <para><command>systemd-networkd</command> is a system
+                service that manages networks. It detects and configures
+                network devices as they appear.</para>
+
+                <para>Network devices are managed by networkd only if they
+                have the udev tag <literal>systemd-networkd</literal>.</para>
+
+                <para>Network configurations applied before networkd is started
+                are not removed, and configuration applied by networkd are not
+                removed when networkd exits. This ensures restarting networkd
+                does not cut the network connection, and in particular that it
+                is safe to transition between the initrd and the real root,
+                and back.</para>
+        </refsect1>
+
+        <refsect1><title>Network Configuration</title>
+                <para>The network files are read from the files located in the
+                system network directory <filename>/usr/lib/systemd/network</filename>,
+                the volatile runtime network directory
+                <filename>/run/systemd/network</filename> and the local administration
+                network directory <filename>/etc/systemd/network</filename>.
+                All link files are collectively sorted and processed in lexical order,
+                regardless of the directories in which they live. However, files with
+                identical filenames replace each other. Files in
+                <filename>/etc</filename> have the highest priority, files in
+                <filename>/run</filename> take precedence over files with the same
+                name in <filename>/lib</filename>. This can be used to override a
+                system-supplied network file with a local file if needed; a symlink in
+                <filename>/etc</filename> with the same name as a network file in
+                <filename>/lib</filename>, pointing to <filename>/dev/null</filename>,
+                disables the network file entirely. Network files must have the extension
+                <filename>.network</filename>; other extensions are ignored.</para>
+
+                <para>The network file contains a <literal>[Match]</literal> section,
+                which determines if a given network file may be applied to a given device;
+                and a <literal>[Network]</literal> section specifying how the device should
+                be configured. The first (in lexical order) of the network files that
+                matches a given device is applied.</para>
+
+                <para>A network file is said to match a device if each of the entries in the
+                <literal>[Match]</literal> section matches, or if the section is empty.
